Introduction Days

CONSENSE Introduction Days

The CONSENSE Introduction Days, hosted by the coordinator TU/e in Eindhoven, Netherlands, took place from 24-27 November 2021. The Introduction Days marked the first network-wide training event of our ITN. 

Read about our ESRs’ experience at their first CONSENSE meeting.
